What a nice day to have off....

Today was my Monday off and the weather was beautiful. Since I was up until 2:30am this morning (don't ask, but it had to do with me somehow corrupting my Microsoft Money backup file) {{rolling eyes}}, I slept in today and didn't get up until 9:00am. My plans included making homemade potato salad for Gunner's birthday celebration tonight and meeting my husband for lunch and so I can see his new place of employment.

Picked my hubby up at work and we went to Francie's on Fleur Drive for lunch. Afterwards, he gave me a tour of his new workplace and I met his boss. Since it was such a nice day and my Aunt and Uncle live really close to Fred's job, I called to see if my Aunt wanted to walk Gray's Lake with me and she said yes.

Gray's Lake is a beautiful place to get some exercise and when the weather is nice, I've been known to drive over there on my lunch hour and do the 2 mile walk.

The water is still pretty high and there were spots where the water was still over the trail, so you had to detour around


The bridge that is lighted at night.


The tree aren't in bloom yet and everything still has a bit of a blah cast to it, but it felt great to be out in the fresh air!
